Abstract: A method for managing routing information in a communications system comprises-defining, in a client network apparatus, a unique private IP address, the unique private IP address uniquely identifying a terminal and the corresponding remote network. The client apparatus defines an IP routing address for the remote network. The client apparatus routes a data packet to a VPN tunnel having the IP routing address defined for the remote network, the data packet being directed to the remote network identified by the unique private IP address. The unique private IP address is translated into a corresponding customer IP address of the terminal in order the data packet to be routable to the terminal in the remote network.
